Introduction

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 1 –17

[On 23 May 1733, the young John Percival, later second Earl of Egmont, attended the levee of the de facto prime minister, Sir Robert Walpole. Percival was out of favour. He had recently dabbled in political opposition, and was widely known to be the author of a pamphlet attacking the government’s...

Scriblerian Friendship and Public Crisis

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 21 –37

[When the South Sea Bubble collapsed in the autumn of 1720, it not only ruined the financial hopes of countless investors, but also had a huge impact on the political landscape of early eighteenth-century Britain.1 The crisis effectively inaugurated the period of Sir Robert Walpole’s political...

Daniel Defoe and South Sea Friendship

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 38 –52

[In a significant article on the ambiguities of friendship in the early Georgian era, Stephen Gregg has discussed Daniel Defoe’s fictions of the early 1720s — particularly The Life, Adventures and Piracies of Captain Singleton — as sites of anxiety about the balance of private interest and public...

Lord Hervey and the Limits of Court Whig Pragmatism

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 53 –68

[The financial catastrophe of the early 1720s cast its shadow over the conceptualisation of friendship throughout Walpole’s regime; the issues of public hysteria and sociable management that it brought to the fore would remain significant in the key crises and discursive shifts characterising the...

The Friendly Opposition and Public Life in Pope’s Epistle to Bathurst

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 69 –82

[Alexander Pope did not plan his Epistle to Bathurst from the beginning as an intervention in the excise debate. This is evident in a text which refers to panic about the excise only in passing and, as will be shown shortly, not with any clear oppositional bias.1 Vincent Carretta has pointed out...

Friendship and the Patriot Prince

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 83 –106

[The previous chapters assessed the different ways that friendship and private life were conceived within a public world rocked by crises of financial speculation and political rumour. The distinguishing features of this public world — party conflict confused by fractures in Whig ideology,...
Available

Friendship and Fable

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 109 –140

[As originally signalled in the introduction, Part II of this book will shift our focus away from historical and political explanations for friendship’s conceptual ambivalence in the 1720s and 1730s, and towards specific literary tropes which significantly contributed to friendship’s definition...
Available

Friendship and Criminality

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 141 –165

[Where the animal tropes discussed in the previous chapter were associated with a single genre and a specific, albeit disputed, classical heritage, the texts to be analysed in Chapter 7 span a variety of different literary forms. They are also, for the most part, decidedly more modern in their...

Epilogue: Friendship and Rural Retreat

Jones, Emrys D.

Pages: 166 –171

[Part I of this book examined the idea of private friendship as it was formulated within specific social and political contexts during the 1720s and 1730s. Chapters 6 and 7 focused on the ways that popular literary tropes collaborated with the instabilities of the political environment so as...
